Angels in the News…
Nick Comande ’76
Kamari McGee ’21 transfers to UW-Madison
Tom Pulda ’72, Grandson in the news……….
Careful, People!: Gary Schonert was involved in a $20,000 Scam past 5 days. Fortunately, his banker questioned the transfer and saved Gary the $20,000.
Unfortunately, Gary had to change all his computer and banking passwords, as well as notify Social Security regarding direct deposit. Bottom Line: it can happen to anyone.

Chris Gorman rehabbing Ankle Surgery - sees Dr. this week hopefully good news.
Dr. Parisa rehabbing and dealing with Kidney Stones.
Gary Albright had successful prostate cancer surgery.
Brenda White rehabbing from recent chemotherapy treatments.

All six Siena schools participated in the Stations of the Cross, whether in-person or virtually. Students did a wonderful job bringing these somber moments to life during Holy Week.
Siena's partnership with Gateway's Fab Lab continues to grow. All of our schools now have their own 3D printer to use in classrooms, bringing science and innovation to all grade levels!
From all of us at Siena Catholic Schools of Racine, a most blessed end to Holy Week and a joyous Easter!
